1. D. The British occupation of Yorktown led to the siege of Yorktown.

Lord Cornwallis had retreated to the Yorktown peninsula in Virginia in June 1781. He hoped for rest and recovery for his army, which was struggling against the American revolutionary fighters. General George Washington amassed all available troops to besiege and attack the British at Yorktown in the fall of 1781, which turned out to be the final, decisive battle of the American Revolution. 

2. Declaring independence from the British king -- that was the reason for the Declaration of Independence. 

Along with its famous words about inalienable Rights such as life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, the Declaration also stated: "The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. ... We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America ... do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these united Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States, that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved." 

3. A. Native Americans lost large amounts of land as a result of the American Revolution. 

A number of Native American tribes had sided with the British in the war (though others sided with the colonists or tried to stay out of the conflict). Under the terms of the Peace of Paris, Britain surrendered to the new United States all of its territory east of the Mississippi, south of the Great Lakes, and north of Florida. Portions of that land had been subject to previous treaties between Britain and the native tribes, but those previous agreements were disregarded.
